Daily Horoscope: Wednesday, Dec 19.

There are so many things you want to change in your life but is this really the right time to be changing them? According to the planets if you leave it a week or two, or maybe even three, your efforts will have much more of an impact.

Others can follow the herd if they wish but you are far too independent to do the same thing. Start a new trend over the next 24 hours, one that tells the world you have a mind of your own and that you are not afraid to use it.

The desire to get together with friends is strong today, Capricorn, but you might be unable to do it as early as you'd hoped. You could be delayed by leftover work or chores. Don't despair, however. You will get out and have fun as planned. Pitch into whatever needs to be done and get it out of the way. You might be able to get to your gathering on time after all.

You may not be the most expressive sign where relationships are concerned but you have your moments when the mood takes you and chances are it will take you today. Try not to go over the top emotionally – you could embarrass yourself.

You may have a soft spot for someone but it seems you are the only one. Don’t be surprised if friends and family try to pressure you to cut ties with them today – for your own good, of course. It’s your call to make and it won’t be easy.

This isn't a day for sensitive people like you, Pisces. In fact, the one who shouts the loudest and bangs on the table the hardest is likely to come out the winner today. The air of violence will also have an effect on you. You will be somewhat upset, very thin-skinned, and much more vulnerable than usual. It would be wise to try to stay away from commotion if you can.

You should be feeling physically strong, healthy, and energetic today, Taurus, although you could also be a little lightheaded. You could experience the sensation of wandering around in a daze with your feet on the ground and your head in the clouds. Achieving balance won't be easy, but you should be able to manage it today. Concentrate on activities that involve spiritual or imaginative faculties today.

The Sun in the career area of your chart can do wonders for your reputation, but it can also damage your social and professional standing if you don’t play by the rules. There will be plenty of time for fun and games later – but be serious today.

Cancer, you might choose to do some volunteer work today or help a friend. This could make you aware of a talent you didn't know you had. It could pave the way to more income. You could feel very proud of yourself and decide to do more with this ability, leading not only to financial benefits but also to increased self-esteem. Go for it.

You don’t have to try so hard Leo. As the Sun moves closer to one of the better areas of your chart you can afford to relax a bit. But that does not mean you can take silly risks just to prove yourself. The world knows what you can do.

Some of the things that have been moving ahead quite smoothly in recent weeks are now beginning to stutter a bit. There is nothing to be alarmed about but it will pay you to look closely at situations you may have been taking for granted.

Something that previously seemed difficult if not impossible to get your head around will now be easy to understand. The situation itself has not changed in the slightest but your mind has – it has expanded to a level where much more makes sense.

Life may seem a bit subdued at the moment but that’s no bad thing. The planets urge you to keep a low profile and steer clear of people who try to talk you into taking on extra commitments. You are doing more than enough already.

There may be a bit of tension in the air this week but that’s okay. The Sun is coming to the end of a mini cycle and the next few days will see a lot of changes. For you at least they will mostly be welcome changes, so keep smiling.

You may need to take a more disciplined approach to your communication today, Libra. Try not to be so harsh and limiting with your words. People respond better to comforting expressions and a sympathetic tone. Cold, abrasive facts will only aggravate an existing wound. Tone things down. Allot yourself some quiet time to be alone and contemplate your state of mind.

If you don’t feel like being creative this weekend then don’t force yourself. According to the planets there is not much point trying to start anything new at the moment – but you can, and you should, finish what you have already begun.

You will be on your toes from first thing in the morning until last thing at night today, and that’s good. The planets suggest that you need to be busy and you need to push yourself closer to your physical and emotional limits – though not beyond them!

If someone you thought was a friend says something less than complimentary about you today don’t take it too seriously. It could be they are having a very bad day and need to blow off some steam. It’s up to you how you choose to take it.

You seem to believe that you have to do everything right now, this very moment, but it isn’t true. With the Sun moving through the work and wellbeing area of your chart you must pace yourself sensibly. A bit of long-term planning would help too.
